Land of the Midnight Sun. One of the guitar heroes of fusion, Al di Meola was just 22-years-old at the time of his debut as a leader but already a veteran of Chick Corea's Return to Forever. The complex pieces which include the three-part Suite-Golden Dawn, an acoustic duet with Corea on Short Tales of the Black Forest, and a brief Bach violin sonata show di Meola's range even at this early stage. Al Di Meola - Sarabande From Violin Sonata In B Minor. Al Di Meola - Love Theme From 'Pictures Of The Sea'. Al Di Meola - Suite Golden Dawn: Morning Fire, Calmer Of The Tempests, From Ocean. Al Di Meola - Short Tales Of The Black Forest. In 1976, 22 year-old guitar wunderkind Al Di Meola rleased his first solo album. LAND OF THE MIDNIGHT SUN was an impressive effort for the young Di Meola, and remains a very satisfying work of vintage fusion. As a member of Chick Corea's highly popular and trailblazing Return to Forever, Berklee grad Di Meola had no problem attracting a stellar cast of musicians to join him in the studio. While Chick, Stanley and Lenny all made contributions to Land of The Midnight Sun, Al also employed the support of such stalwarts as bassist Anthony Jackson and Jaco Pastorius, drummers Steve Gadd and Alphonze Mouzon, and keyboardist Barry Miles.
